More than a dozen schools across Georgia, including Baldwin High School, have gone into lockdown after 911 calls reporting an active shooter at the respective schools. So far, all of the reports have been verified as false.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is “aware of reports” of the incidents, according to Nelly Miles, director of the public and governmental affairs for GBI.

“At this point, the GBI is on standby with investigative teams ready to assist,” Miles wrote in an email. “GISAC (state fusion center) is also working closely with federal agencies to monitor activity.”
